China snubs Japan for calling Arunachal part of India

[CONNAN]

China has snubbed Japan’s Foreign Minister Fumio Kishida for his statement acknowledging Arunachal Pradesh as part of India. The Chinese foreign ministry spokesman slammed Japan, asking it to mind its own business instead of interfering in India-China relationship. The Chinese reaction came after Kishida said that Japan was ready to invest in infrastructure projects in India’s landlocked north-east, but it would not invest in Arunachal Pradesh, although it did see the state as part of India.

Reacting to Japanese minister’s statement, Chinese foreign ministry spokesman Hong Lei said, “We are seriously concerned about this and have lodged serious representation with the Japanese side. We hope Japan can fully understand the sensitivity of China-India border issues and respect the efforts that both sides have taken to resolve the disputes through negotiations.”

Hong said that Japan should be “prudent in its words and actions” and added that China and India are trying to resolve the boundary question in a manner that is fair, reasonable and acceptable to both sides.

The spokesman pointed out that Japan had earlier said that it holds no position and it will not intervene in the boundary dispute between China and India. He said Japan should now clarify on the recent statement and ‘remove the negative implications’ arising from it.

Pointing out that China claims ownership of Arunachal, Hong said the state includes “three areas in Tibet Autonomous Region – Monyul, Loyul and Lower Tsayul – currently under Indian illegal occupation”.

China regards the Mcmahon Line as illegal and claims areas in north-east along the line as Chinese territory.

Does It matter? Japan is not china's slave, they will say whats the truth.
And also Peoples of AP hold AADHAR CARD, VOTER ID, PASSPORT etc of INDIA, so where ever they go, the host will recognize them as Indian, hence China fails to spread lies in the world about AP.

@Nihonjin1051 any comments?

BTW appreciate the good gesture of Kishida-san.

I really hope we also reciprocate this with regards to Senkaku-shoto.

 

[sicsheep]

Not hear any response from India's side.. we did not hear about "senkaku belongs to Japan"? very disappointing

BTW Japan and India must understand that there is a need of military alliance. The sooner the better. It will be for sure but they are just waiting for a crack.

an Asian NATO is much needed.

If India can develop NE parts well enough within next 15 years then I think it will be able to integrate just like we're doing with Balochistan, FATA.
Otherwise if such situation persists, tensions between state and rebels could possibly rise.
Only way to get rid of this is by investment in human resource.

America want Japan become the cannon fodder against China's rise up,but Japan want India become the one.

If I am Indian policy maker,I will use this rare time to get technologies support from Japan,attract Chinese investment and OEM industry,then on stand up with American diplomatic direction.

Thanks to Nehru,India had lost the similar opportunity when cold war period.China catch it and benefit for a long time.Mao get a lot assistance from USSR,it helped us establish a complete industry system;Deng start the new relation with western camp by Sino-Vietnamese War,which means breaking with USSR camp,it created a great chance to join the new world order of America.

Three question for India now:
1.India need what?
Huge investment to liberate the surplus labor and build infrastructure
Political voice in Asia,controlling power in South Asia.
Technologies to establish a complete basic manufacturing industry.
Investment + complete manufacturing technologies+large number of cheap labour=Made in India
2.Who has such elements?
China:surplus capital and industries
Japan:technologies
America:controlling political power on international negotiations
3.How to gain that?
Using the conflict between China and Japan------for the controlling power of East Asia
Using the America "return to Asia" strategy-------for "say yes' order

First China should vacate illegally occupied Aksai Chin, stop it's illegal infrastructure building work in Azad Kashmir, give Tibet freedom, stop objecting to Indian projects with Vietnam in SCS, and then talk.

 

[notsuperstitious]

China - third parties must not carry out infra projects in AP

China continues infra projects in Pakistan occupied Kashmir.

A bully is not always a hypocrite, only when diplomacy mandates it.

Many Indians don't know much about china only thing we know about China is that you build like there is no tommorow
Both India & China don't have any historical conflict like India & Pakistan ,China & Japan & we will welcome any investment from china.that being said it is upto china to make us a valuable Ally by giving up its claim on Arunachal Pradesh or making us a unnessary enemy by not giving up its claim on our territory.Your Choices Gentelmen

Japan is all for it. Mr. Abe seems more than willing for something like that. But here's the catch; our foreign policy, no matter how much Hindu nationalists are in power, will not change the official foreign policy of multi-lateral engagement.

Personally, I would love to see India and Japan forging a solid Asian military alliance including countries like Korea (I know they don't get along with Japanese, but they are friendly and reasonable as such), Singapore, Thailand, Vietnam, Indonesia, Philippines, Nepal and Bhutan.

In fact, if our Chinese friends were pragmatic, even they would have been a strong Asian military alliance member and therefore safeguard the political and military interests of Asia, the way NATO safeguards the interests of Europeans and Americans across the world.
